Josh Wood Interview: amfAR Inspiration Gala

SB: Let’s talk about amfAR. You’ve been tied to them more than once now. What does amfAR mean to you?

JW: amfAR’s been a big blessing in my life, because I started… I was producing events and working in night life for a long time, and I wanted to try and do some philanthropic work. So at the same time, I think they wanted to do some more events, so I met the CEO at Life Ball in Vienna and we started talking. And I pitched him an idea about doing a new series of events based on men’s fashion, because I didn’t think there was anything really super hardcore in men’s fashion. So, we’ve been doing this now for -- this is our fourth one, and we’ve raised over 10 million dollars, which is crazy!
